No matter what I search under, nothing comes up even though I'm connected to hubs. Is there something I need to do in order for the search to work.

that's sort of true--you can still get stuff from active users, just not passive users

he could be firewalled by school or directed through a packet shaper, in that case he's pretty much screwed
